I caught an advertisement for a program on the Science Channel regarding the recovery of the USS Alligator from the Deleware River. It's suppose to air this week, but I'm sorry I didn't catch the date and time.

And there has been a new Aligator here in Armorama for at least a year
From great modeler Bob Santos (you probably have read some of his articles in FSM)
